About the adventure

Fifty years have elapsed since the Kobold Enlightenment, and Sovnheim has evolved into an era of industrial advancement. However, the kingdom's future hangs in the balance. You are summoned to lead your people in a campaign fraught with peril, to rise to power, and to understand the depths of love and sorrow. Your decisions, from igniting revolution to governing Sovnheim, will shape a dynamic world of consequences affecting the entire realm. Prepare for unparalleled action and exploration, offering myriad ways to engage and combat adversaries. Along your journey, you'll encounter a diverse array of characters, each with their own quirks and humour. Choosing whether to ally with or oppose them leads to explosive confrontations. As you strive to sow the seeds of revolution and claim dominion over your realm, your choices will alter the course of history, for either the common good or personal ambition. Who will you emerge as? A rebellious figure without a cause, the very tyrant you rebelled against, or the most revered ruler of all time?

About me

Remember to have a lovely day! I delved into the enchanting world of 5e in 2016 and was immediately captivated by the magic of collaborative storytelling. For me, being a Game Master isn't just about orchestrating battles and dungeons; it's about helping you weave your character's journey and creating a narrative that resonates. Beyond the gaming table, I'm on a perpetual quest to enhance my skills. Whether it's refining my roleplaying abilities or concocting unconventional monster mash-ups to challenge even the savviest adventurers, I'm always seeking new ways to elevate the gaming experience. Your stories are at the heart of what makes tabletop roleplaying so special. I can't wait to embark on a new adventure with you and witness the tales we'll craft together. Let's create memories that linger long after the dice have settled.

This campaign (Royal Revolution) was not quite what I expected from the description. From the amount of background information, I was expecting something roleplay / strategy heavy. Instead, this is a very well designed and executed linear campaign, with lots of quirky characters and interesting set-piece encounters. If you like a campaign where the roleplay is mainly for flavor, and the combats are central but varied, this is definitely a fun experience.

Pickle was amazing at integrating my character into the story and making everyone feel welcome. He added my seamlessly and I immediately felt like I had been playing with everyone for years. Best gamemaster for beginners, great for everyone else!
